A Regea song

Preacher man don’t tell me

Heaven is on the earth.

Preacher man don’t tell me

Suffering is all we’re worth.

Because when you go digging for all that gold

I know eternal life on earth gets old

So don’t tell me things I know are cold.

 

Great Rasta you smoke your dope

Say getting high is for good folk…

Well I tell you all this song

It’s stupid to find meaning in your bong.

 

Because I see you corrupt as hell

Singing songs to the broken man

With all  of the lies you tell.

Saying, “Heaven is a place on earth,”

While billions live and die in crusted dearth.

 

Preacher man you ain’t off the hook.

You use religion and say, “O no, don’t look.”

You are the best magician’s wand

Waving hands say’n, “O, my dear God,”

While you see the people grow old and poor.

You say, “God wants me to have some more.”

 

So get up stand up,

Stand up for your right.

Get up stand up,

Don’t give up the fight.

 

I’m sick’ and tired of your liv’n, giv’n games

Saying, “Don’t live to go to heaven in Jesus’ name.”

Don’t give up the fight

Stand up for your right.

 

I see a world we all must bear

For years on end and that’s why I care,

Don’t give up the fight.

Stand up for your right,

Songdefine

the beat,

Dance to the electronic base,

Swing to the saxophone,

Feel like the old country singer,

Immerse in the sounds of the choirs with their ardent notes.

How the music of my life

Shaped me… made such mellow melancholia

Have made me feel in love.

They have occupied my mind with vivid fantasies

Of futures hard to obtain.

They have satisfied me

Made me feel in love.

They have known my sorrows

And have touched my shame.

 

Music is God’s greatest gift to mankind

That man can make with his hands.

Second to that is the poem

Which music, in all her glory

Defined.
